Using helicopters and chemical agents, immigration agents become increasingly aggressive in Chicago Activists, residents and elected leaders say increasingly combative tactics used by federal immigration agents are sparking violence and fueling neighborhood tensions in the nationโ€™s third-largest cit...

So basically, the federal government declares WAR on Chicago, helicopters in and stages a massive display of terror and indiscriminate force against CIVILIANS and CITIZENS and then shows pictures of their goons and weaponry with the message: "look what they made us do!!

People who THINK they are helping are posting photos of "quaint" things at PDX protests when the photos are either 5 years ago, or elsewhere.

For example: this was taken IN GERMANY 18 years ago and is captioned as happening here and now in PDX.

If you hate misinformation, don't be guilty of it.

Sounds like Republicans ought to get all the Republicans who form the Republican majorities in the Republican-led House and the Republican-led Senate together to pass the budget that Republicans wrote with the Republican White House and that Republicans now insist absolutely must be passed.

This is the same woman who was injured in a separate post earlier. I didn't even recognize her and she wasn't identified my name. But now I realize it is her, her name is Laurie Eckman. And her husband is with her and was also knocked down. They are both 84 fucking years old.

This was posted by a friend of mine today. He is a volunteer community outreach leader at Trinity Episcopal Cathedral in Portland and wrote a book on Saint Benedict.

word: โ€œYES!! People have to know that the Feds are attacking people with NO provocation whatsoever. Many people our age, neighbors, etc.โ€ So please share!

<note: she Went to the hospital and was told she had a concussion.> I HOPE SHE SUES THE SHIT OUT OF THEM.

They are not allowed to engage and have to watch from across the street. An MSNBC photographer said he has been documenting these unprovoked attacks, but the ICE agents recognize him now and block him. Sheโ€™s fine. Just furious. She encouraged me to post the incident on Facebook and spread the

down, sprayed us with chemical and I was hit in the head with a projectile. Lots of medical folks surrounded me. Bleeding all over. Couldnโ€™t find Richard in the gas. Iโ€™m okay. But this was so unprovoked. SO UNPROVOKED.โ€

She said 4 Portland police officers came to her and were very caring.

This is my 84 year old sister after she was attacked by federal agents in front of the ICE building in Portland. This is her text: โ€œWe are home now. We marched from the park to ICE, very peaceful crowd. We were standing around ICE. Feds rushed out in a phalanx and pushed us..

Today in Portland: the annual marathon run. Beautiful day, people out the enjoying blue skies and 70ยฐ weather. Driving by the ICE building south of downtown I saw the usual 100-or-so protesters w/signs chilling across the street, some seated.

But this happened yesterday, posted by a sister:

I don't support government officials spraying nonviolent citizens in the face at point blank range with pepper spray foggers. It is a gross violation of their First Amendment rights to speech and protest, and their Fourth Amendment rights against excessive force.

People like John Kelly and Mark Milley do not throw a word like "fascist" around lightly.

I hope people realize that this decision was made by the NFL for revenue and eyeballs alone. Apoplectic MAGA people who think this is anything else are using entirely the wrong lens. The message the NFL is sending to MAGA is that like most mass marketers, they're just not that into you.
